Install the Scale Module. It will show some of the scales supported. Then google the types and see what is available near you. Serial connection would be the best.

Thanks!!! I did that… I found only two scales and one generic…  
and this brings me another question… The notebooks I use DO NOT have serial ports…

THANKS!!!

Get a serial to usb cable. Or if the scales come with USB make sure their drivers sets them as a serial port device.
